    As an example , a lot of 2nd gen members did the modifications to their truck for better control when backing up trailers , boats etc . They say low range is far too low and 2low is perfect .Thats only 1 reason though , I believe there are more .


    This is an example of how the 2 low mod operates in the 2nd gen trucks and you can probably expect similar using 4 low once the fancy magic box is built .Its a matter of energizing the solenoid for second gear when you are in low range . I understand what the OP is asking

    You’re still talking about something completely different than what OP asked about.

    OP wants to have his truck start in 2nd gear while in 4lo.

    You’re talking about 2 wheel drive low range (2lo) mod.
